is there any way to update ruby from console on windows??

something like gem does

gem update

is there something like ruby update??

the issue here is that the one click installer needs u to remove the old
ruby directory and thus removes all the installed gems

and that's tooo stupid and time consuming

any solution?

There's no ruby update AFAIK. You can work around this by renaming
c:\ruby to something else, installing ruby, then overwrite
C:\ruby\lib\ruby\gems with the old version and call 'gem update' to
fetch the new versions.
